The uterus is a hollow and pear-shaped organ in the pelvic area, located between the bladder and the rectum and covered by a tissue called the endometrium. The endometrium is made every month in the uterus, which is removed from the body during menstruation. Also, there are two tubes on both sides of the uterus, which are known as fallopian tubes. The task of these tubes is to release eggs and guide them into the uterus for fertilization. In the cervix, if there are abnormal cells that grow abnormally, uterine cancer occurs. This cancer can be treated if detected early. Ultrasound is one of the common methods for imaging the internal parts of the body. Among the applications of this treatment method, we can mention the diagnosis of uterine cancer. Cervical cancer is one of the most curable cancers. The necessary condition for the treatment of this cancer is to detect it on time and in the early stages. According to the report of the American Cancer Society, the higher the screening rate with pap smear tests, the lower the mortality from cervical cancer. Regular Pap smear tests are one of the most important and effective prevention methods to detect cells at risk of becoming cancerous. Getting the HPV vaccine and doing regular pap smear screenings can help you reduce the risk of cervical cancer.

Breast cancer, which is caused by rapid and abnormal growth of cells in the breast, is a complex disease in which many factors can be involved. Some factors such as age, family history, genetics and gender are not under the control of the individual. However, a person can control other factors such as smoking, physical activity, proper weight and diet to prevent breast cancer. Some researchers believe that diet can be responsible for 30-40% of all cancers. This study raises an interesting point in research to identify breast cancer risk by focusing on estrogen- or progesterone-enhancing chemicals. However, without in vivo studies, it is premature to attempt to make a definitive connection. A multifaceted approach is necessary to fully understand the role that chemicals play in the development of breast cancer. According to Dr. Truss, this should include all data from cell studies, animal studies, and human observations. The human body is [also] very complex, and studying one piece of the puzzle individually may be very different than what happens when all the pieces are put together, said Dr. Lauren Truss. Dr. Gramley added: "Even if the findings are interesting, we can't take it and apply it to humans." Evaluating the effects of these chemicals on humans is still challenging and most of them have not been studied enough. So we expect more care to be taken in interpreting observations of chemically induced changes in breast tissue, Rudel said. A new cell culture study joins the list of research investigating the link between environmental chemicals and breast cancer. Although this is a bold and premature claim, the paper overlaps with what experts currently believe. A new study suggests that certain synthetic chemicals can increase the risk of breast cancer by stimulating hormones.

Cervical cancer chemotherapy means the use of drugs that destroy cancer cells. Medicines are injected into a vein or taken by mouth as pills. These drugs enter the bloodstream and reach the whole body. For this reason, chemotherapy is used to treat uterine cancer when uterine cancer spreads to parts that are not accessible for surgery. This method can be used to prevent the recurrence of the disease and its spread to other parts of the body. Chemotherapy is not used to treat endometrial cancer in stages I and II. Chemotherapy is often prescribed in a cycle, meaning a period of treatment and a period of rest. Chemotherapy drugs may be administered on one or more days per cycle. Uterine cancer chemotherapy can be administered intravenously, tablets, ointments and injections. Treatment is often done as an outpatient visit in a hospital, clinic, and in very few cases at home. In most cases, you can return home after the treatment, but in some cases, you may need to stay in the hospital for a while. Chemotherapy can be very hard on your veins, so having a venous access device or an indwelling catheter during treatment can be a good option. The catheter is a thin and flexible tube that may be placed in your body so that there is no need to insert the catheter into the body during subsequent treatments. One end of the catheter is placed in a vein near your heart.
